Latroit releases video for Finally with Ron Carter

GRAMMY-winning producer LATROIT has released the music video for “Finally,” the lead single from his House Ensemble’s debut album, Classics Vol. 1. The track pairs house music with a new bass performance from jazz legend Ron Carter, who recorded the part in New York in June 2026.

Why it matters: - The release brings together house music and jazz through a new performance from Ron Carter, one of the most influential bassists in jazz history. - “Finally” is Carter’s first exploration into house music. - The collaboration gives LATROIT’s House Ensemble debut album a high-profile centerpiece.

What happened: - LATROIT, the GRAMMY Award-winning producer and musician Dennis White, released the music video for “Finally.” - The track is the lead single from Classics Vol. 1, the debut album from the Latroit House Ensemble. - Ron Carter recorded a new bass performance for the song in New York in June 2026. - The video is now available to watch on YouTube: Watch “Finally”.

The details: - Carter did not sample one of his older recordings. LATROIT invited him to create an original bass part for the Kings of Tomorrow house classic. - Carter’s recording on “Finally” marks a rare collaboration between artists from jazz and house music. - Carter spent more than six decades in music, anchored Miles Davis’ Second Great Quintet from 1963 to 1968, and logged more than 2,200 recording sessions. - The music video was directed by Priscilla Jimenez, the Latroit Ensemble’s creative director. - Jimenez said the video concept was designed to highlight the song’s intimate feel and the sessions around the world where it was recorded. - Classics Vol. 1 was recorded in Johannesburg, Oxfordshire, London, Miami, Detroit, New York, and Los Angeles. - The album is being released via House of Latroit / Symphonic. - The project also features the Soweto Gospel Choir, South African vocalist Nomvula Munnie, and UK vocalist Nick Clow. - The album is positioned as a project dedicated to preserving the spirit and cultural legacy of house music through live performance.

Between the lines: - LATROIT is leaning on live musicianship and cross-genre collaboration instead of samples, which gives the project a more performance-driven identity. - The mix of locations and artists suggests an album built as a global house music statement, not just a club record. - Carter’s involvement adds credibility beyond genre crossover, especially for listeners who know him from jazz rather than dance music.

What's next: - Classics Vol. 1 is set up as the debut statement for the Latroit House Ensemble. - LATROIT is likely to continue framing the album around legacy, live performance, and global collaborators. - The “Finally” video serves as the first major public entry point into the project.

The bottom line: - LATROIT is using Ron Carter’s first house recording to launch a debut album that ties together jazz history, live performance, and modern house music.
